AKG C 414 XLS Stereo-Set Stereo set with tuned frequency response
AKG C 414 XLS Stereo Set
Convincing stereo recordings not only require microphones with excellent sound properties and excellent quality, but above all the highest possible match in the frequency response of the microphone pair with practically identical sensitivities. Therefore, each AKG C414 XLS pair is composed of two perfectly matched individual microphones.
The set is determined using a sophisticated computer algorithm that compares the measured values from thousands of microphones. The two AKG C414 microphones assigned to one another in this way differ by less than 1 dB in terms of both sensitivity and individual frequency response with cardioid characteristics between 300 Hz and 8 kHz.
These are the prerequisites for breathtaking, three-dimensional images. When used for stereo recordings, a good and stable balance results without frequency-dependent shifts in the panorama.
